Once again I’m fascinated by a query in the MacIntosh-forum which’s solution I suspect is within JavaScript’s reach but out of my depth – namely:
Can one rotate a brush by Keyboard Shortcut, like in- or decreasing its size or softness?
I mostly use the round brushes myself, so it’s not like I even miss the capability …
I suspect by saving a Brush Preset, then saving that one alone as an abr-file, deleting the Brush Preset, reading and editing the abr.file, loading it, selecting the single Brush Preset contained and deleting it, too, one might achieve it.
Of course editing the abr-file with a Script seems a bit risky to me.
On xbytor’s advice I downloaded HexEditor, but the Brush Tip Shape-Angle-setting mystifies me … »AnglUntF#Ang@« seems to be the one but I fail to understand the angle-value …
Furthermore the total number of brushes (for indexing purposes) eludes me.
Anyway, the procedure may be too complicated or time-consuming to make any practical sense (apart from inserting numerous steps in the history, which might be a further drawback in real working conditions), but I guess some of You like exploring theoretical applications of Scripting-techniques, so maybe You could give me Your opinions/advice on the whole matter.
